Guest superryan Posted November 13, 2008 Has anyone ever made these with Stevia? I've never had any negative reactions to articifical sugars, but I've just heard so many terrible things about aspartame as well as sucrulose (splenda), so I bought some Stevia the other day to sweeten things (and I'm even making my own soda with club soda, stevia, and splashes of lemon and lime juice instead of diet coke!). Anyone know how to formulate how much to use when a recipe calls for sugar/splenda/etc..??? Thanks!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sjerseysetter 10 Posted April 1, 2009 these are like the brownie mix/fiber one cereal muffins that are 1 pt. each. Honestly, for 1 pt, I'd rather eat the sugar and flour, and skip these as they are screaming SPLENDA to my mouth. I like the texture, I always thought the fiber muffins were chocolate and cocoanut to me. But unless I adapt the splenda way down, I don't like these. I'll try them after they set awhile and see. Anyone know what to do?? cut the 1 cup splenda in half? I'm guessing. I'd love to hear from some who have made desserts, yet adapted the recipe cause they also thought things were too sweet!

claire1 10 Posted April 28, 2009 This has been posted before but I wanted to let you know of a couple of things I've done that have made these things light as a feather....penny I'm eating one HOT out of the oven right now...big difference in mouth feel. My adjustments are in red.  Core Brownies (preheat oven to 350)   3/4 c oat bran 1/4 c cream of wheat 1/4 c plus 2 tbsp cocoa powder 1 c splenda 1 package sf/ff instant chocolate fudge jello pudding 1/2 c ff milk or water (Try FF buttermilk! It makes baked goods more tender) 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp baking powder, in addition to the baking soda 1/2 tsp salt 1/3 c unsweetend applesauce (Use 1/2 c or 2 individual servings) 3 eggs 1 tsp vanilla Add Kahlua SF DaVinci and/or Caramel SF DaVinci  Combine oat bran, cream of wheat, pudding mix, cocoa, Splenda, baking soda and salt, mix well. Stir in applesauce, eggs, milk (or water), and vanilla. Mix well. Spray 8"x8" square pan with cooking spray, spread batter evenly into pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes. (Will need to cook a little longer due to additional applesauce and DV syrups) eurika I found it!!!! I looked for about an hour . I am going to try this tomorrow.

It's very very sweet so you need to put far less than sugar into your recipes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
